This was the first recipe I tried when I got my slow cooker everyone loved it. My husband has used Sazon and Adobo in the past so I was excited to include it in this recipe. Thanks

Do you have to sear the meat or can you just put it in as is?

OMG!!! This was delicious!!! I used the editor's note suggestion instead of using the Sazon seasoning. I usually tweak a recipe after the first time but, I can't think of anything to change short of trying different veggies...I love cactus and bet that would be good too...difficult to find though.

This roast was amazing! Took a minute to find the sazon, but it was well worth it. It was my first time making a pot roast and my husband loved it too!

 Shelley (United States) says:
Question: Do you add the catsup and Sazon to the water and pour over the roast or so you just spread the catsup and sazon over the roast?

What is the difference in using the McCormick pot roast or beef stew seasoning versus a package of brown gravy mix? Can you use both or do they have the same purpose?

Be aware Sazon contains MSG.

This is a wonderful recipe! However, I did not use the green beans or tomatoes, but I did add some fresh mushrooms and some cabbage.... MMMMMMM is all I can say!! Great recipe!

Adobo is Spanish for seasoning. In the recipe, I believe it is a seasoning mix that many Latin households use. I use Goya Adobo and you can find it in the Hispanic food section of your grocery store.
